Integra Resources $20M Bought Deal
Welcome to Mining Stock Daily. This is your host, Trevor Hall
Today is Thursday, September 10th.
Once again gold was able to shrug off forceful overnight interventionary selling in London which took the gold price down over $20 to $1926 on the December paper gold contract before launching over $30 after the Comex floor hours commenced. Similarly, silver withstood a bout of selling and bounced off a low of $26.60, rising over 80 cents to $27.25 as this commentary is being written. Meanwhile, investors chased the mining stocks as if they were chasing their last meal, with GDX jumping 4.3% and the venerable HUI index soaring 4.8%. The Mining Stock Journal said that the mining shares, especially the riskiest junior explorers, are still extraordinarily cheap in relation to the prices of gold and silver. The newsletter added that it appears as if fundamental, technical and seasonal factors are lined up in a way that could produce serious fireworks in the precious metals sector this fall.
We’ll get to the news out of the miners and explorers here in just a quick moment, but first a quick mention of today’s sponsor.
This episode of Mining Stock Daily is brought to you by… Rio2.
